Hello all,
Ok I am guessing I'll get yelled at, but I have been searching for a solution to this problem non stop for some time with no success, please help me :(
I've played arma 1 a lot in the past, and seeing that arma 2 was on sale I finally decided to get it. I enjoyed the demo when I tried it so I know my computer should run it, so when buying the game (on Steam) I was not worried about any conflicts with hardware.
Tho now I could be mistaken. This is what happens when I start the game. The different logo screens come up as they should, then the menu starts to load, and the mouse shows up as the arma 2 ingame mouse icon, but then the game freezes, I can see that the landscape rendering, or whatever it is has loaded faintly in the background and then I crash out to the desktop.
I get no information other than "ArmA 2 has stopped working - Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..." then
"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
the game is version: 1.07.71750
My comp:
q6600 at 2.55
asus striker extreme
2 gigs of ram
evga 8800gtx
Also, I don't have any virus protection programs installed at this time that would kill the program.
I have reinstalled the game 3 times now, I have defragged the entire drive, updated direct x, and video drivers, checked game cache, I have also removed my daemon tools. What else should I do, I'm really depressed I can't play the game :\
